You've already made me grow attached to the world and the characters, and I love to support my fellow authors. I'm sure other readers feel the same. Yes, we all love free things, but if paying a little bit of money helps to support an author we follow, then it is completely worth it. <br /><br />Either way, I am excitedly awaiting more Robert Evert books.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01274405738778235508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219408317753791302.post-19095593171277285872014-11-16T02:29:30.913-05:002014-11-16T02:29:30.913-05:00That is awesome!

I've noticed that the Amazon rankings seem to change very fast, though. One day I saw mine ranked number 74 in Cyberpunk, but then when I check a short time later it was in the thousands.

More or less taking a break to get my head sorted, but I'll probably dive in again over the next month or two. Honestly, tempted to start afresh with a pen name. I got way too caught up in wanting everything to be perfect. I just want to write, you know? Not meaning I'd publish works full of typos by any means as I have too much respect for readers, but I don't want to worry about the story not being perfect as there's no such thing anyway or having plenty of substance (meaning just write for enjoyment without worrying about giving people stuff to think about). I feel creating a pen name would allow me to get away from that and relax.<br /><br />Anyhow, I understand what you mean. You could make it so readers could donate via Paypal or something similar? Maybe setup a button on your blog for people to donate. Not good with technology here however, and it may just be easier to set aside your Amazon earnings if you go that route.<br /><br />Regardless, best of luck with everything.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326224688826179127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219408317753791302.post-23308247780441765152014-10-06T10:20:59.808-04:002014-10-06T10:20:59.808-04:00:) Let's hope other people will feel the same...:) Let's hope other people will feel the same way:) And thanks!!!

To have a everyday character become someone so important is enlightening. To discover with all the characters their skills, moral conflicts and life purpose is riveting. I hope and ask please continue until the end. I am a dog lover and need to know the bond of Thorax and Becky to Edmund. I fear that I have become more addicted to this series than the Terry Brooks series.

Put them up on Wattpad and say if people want to support you financially, they can buy your books at such and such.<br /><br />Not sure if it'd work, but it's a solution at least. Especially if you do decide to give your work away for free. You stand a chance of at least earning some money which you wouldn't if you gave them away.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14326224688826179127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219408317753791302.post-83401603907410469982014-08-04T11:21:40.857-04:002014-08-04T11:21:40.857-04:00Don't worry!
